By	tammy (chicago, il United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Xena The Huntress And The Sphinx (Paperback)

when a group of children are kidnapped, xena and gabrielle join
in the search to find them. they are joined by attlanta, who is
a goddess who cannot be defeated. but the enemies that have the
children have other ideals for the 2 fierecest women known in
ancient greece. a decent read for all xena fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars A pretty good book, but....., Jul 9 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Xena The Huntress And The Sphinx (Paperback)

This was a pretty good book, but could have been better. The character of Atalanta was already established in Hercules: The Legendary Journies and I had that character in mind when I read it. The Atalanta in the book and the Atalanta in Hercules were two totally different people (the one in the book is a complete jerk!) and that is one of the reasons I didn't like it. Also, the way Gabrielle was acting, too many "Ooohs" and "Aaahhhss". I can actually say I have never seen Gabrielle bite her fist over anything.
I know how hard it is to write about established characters, it's not easy at all. All in all the author did a pretty good job.

3.0 out of 5 stars Things could be worse . . . ., Feb 2 2001

By	"m_jade" (St. Johnsbury, VT United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Xena The Huntress And The Sphinx (Paperback)

Personnally I found this book entertaining enough to read several times. I admit that characters are not completely true to form. However I suggest an experiment: Write a story about Xena. See how true-to-form perfect your characters are. The story is still a good read.

The plot is a little plain and the fights aren't wondurously developed. Use your imagination to fill in the blanks. It is more fun.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Empty Throne, but still a must read
This book was awesome! The riddles were fun, and the characters were put on a very realistic level. While I enjoy The Empty Throne better, this is definently still a classic Xena... Read more
